Light is not a wave because it does not need a medium

It's a tough question as to whether light is a wave or a particle..

The statement is FALSE. Not all types of waves need a medium to propagate. Light can travel without a medium.

Extra Information:
Light is a longitudinal wave, sound is transverse.
Longitudinal waves do not need a medium.
Transverse waves need a medium.
This is why, for example, in the vacuum of space, light travels from stars, but sound does not.

Answer: The force was 13.92 Newtons.

Explanation:

First, let's recall the second Newton's law:

The net force is equal to the mass times the acceleration, or:

F = m*a

where:

F = force

m = mass

a = acceleration.

When the player hits the ball with the bat, he applies a force that accelerates the ball for a small period of time, that increases greatly the speed of the ball.

In this case, we know that:

the mass of the ball is 0.145 kg

The acceleration of the ball is 96m/s^2

Then we can input those values in the above equation to find the force.

F = 0.145kg*96m/s^2 = 13.92 N

The force was 13.92 Newtons.

Katy works at a pet store, and is in charge of tracking the cat food supply for the morning, afternoon, and evening shifts. Ther

Basile [38]

The cats have full bowls in the morning and afternoon, Katy can assume that the cats do not eat in the morning or afternoon. The bowls are replenished in the evening, which suggests that they become empty in the evening, which suggest that the pattern is that the cats eat in the evening so your answer would be C. Hope this helps. ;)

Answer:

The sled needed a distance of 92.22 m and a time of 1.40 s to stop.

Explanation:

The relationship between velocities and time is described by this equation: $v_f=v_0+a*t$ , where $v_f$ is the final velocity, $v_0$ is the initial velocity, $a$ the acceleration, and $t$ is the time during such acceleration is applied.

Solving the equation for the time, and applying to the case: $t=\frac{v_f-v_0}{a}=\frac{0\frac{m}{s}-282\frac{m}{s} }{-201\frac{m}{s^2} }=1.40s$ , where $v_f=0\frac{m}{s}$ because the sled is totally stopped, $v_0=282\frac{m}{s}$ is the velocity of the sled before braking and, $a=-201\frac{m}{s^2}$ is negative because the deceleration applied by the brakes.

In the other hand, the equation that describes the distance in term of velocities and acceleration: $x_f-x_0=v_0*t+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2$ , where $x_f-x_0$ is the distance traveled, $v_0$ is the initial velocity, $t$ the time of the process and, $a$ is the acceleration of the process.
